Detailed Description

Display.h implementation for UART output.

============================================================================

DisplayUart specifics

DisplayUart has two sets of function pointer tables. One which adds some ANSI/VT100 codes to the output, for cursor placement etc, and a minimal implementation which basically is a wrapper for UART_write.

DisplayUartAnsi_fxnTable
DisplayUartMin_fxnTable

DisplayUartMin

DisplayUartMin simply formats and outputs the text over UART and adds a newline at the end of each statement.

Calls to Display_clear, Display_clearLine(s), and the line and column specifiers in Display_printf(handle, line, col, fmt, ...) are ignored.

DisplayUartAnsi

DisplayUartAnsi will send the following escape-strings to the UART when it is opened:

Reset terminal
Clear screen
Set scrolling region from line 10 (not inclusive)
Set cursor to line 11

When Display_print(handle, line, col, fmt, ...) is called with a line number the following is sent:

Save cursor position
Set scroll region from line 10
Move cursor to line, column
String to be printed
Restore cursor position

If Display_printf is called with the line "number" DisplayUart_SCROLLING, the string to be printed is simply output at the current cursor location, without saving or restoring the position. If the terminal supports the scrolling region feature, as most do, then the terminal will ensure that the content output here will scroll up but not overwrite the text written outside the scroll region.

In this manner it is possible to have two separate outputs, one with a log of events, and one with fixed positions as on an LCD. Unless the DisplayUart_SCROLLING line specifier is used, any line number can be used, also those nominally inside the scrolling region.

There is also a helper file <ti/display/AnsiColor.h> with a macro to set the color and style of the text.

Usage Example

#include <ti/display/Display.h>
#include <ti/display/DisplayUart.h>
#include <ti/display/AnsiColor.h>
#define MAXPRINTLEN 128
DisplayUart_Object displayUartObject;
static char uartStringBuf[MAXPRINTLEN];
const DisplayUart_HWAttrs displayUartHWAttrs = {
    .uartIdx      = Board_UART,
    .baudRate     = 115200,
    .mutexTimeout = BIOS_WAIT_FOREVER,
    .strBuf       = uartStringBuf,
    .strBufLen    = MAXPRINTLEN,
};
const Display_Config Display_config[] = {
    {
        .fxnTablePtr = &DisplayUartAnsi_fxnTable,
      //.fxnTablePtr = &DisplayUartMin_fxnTable,
        .object = &displayUartObject,
        .hwAttrs = &displayUartHWAttrs
    }
};
const uint8_t Display_count = sizeof(Display_config) / sizeof(Display_Config);
void myTask(uintptr_t a0, uintptr_t a1)
{
  Display_Handle handle = Display_open(Display_Type_UART);
  Display_printf(handle, 1, 0, "Hello");
  Display_printf(handle, 2, 6, ANSI_COLOR(FG_GREEN) "World!" ANSI_COLOR(ATTR_RESET));
}

Typedef Documentation

§ DisplayUart_HWAttrs

typedef struct DisplayUart_HWAttrs DisplayUart_HWAttrs

DisplayUart Attributes.

The DisplayUart driver uses a buffer for formatting messages, which is then passed to UART_write(). The location and size of the buffer are specified in a DisplayUart_HWAttrs structure. Access to the buffer is synchronized by a semaphore. The timeout for acquiring the semaphore is specified in the attributes.

§ DisplayUart_Object

typedef struct DisplayUart_Object DisplayUart_Object

DisplayUart Object.

The application must not access any member variables of this structure!

§ DisplayUart_Handle

typedef struct DisplayUart_Object * DisplayUart_Handle
